Oops sorry we're cross-posting because Twitter threading is confusing.
Yeah I haven't edited the post yet :-). I've noticed from talking with folks that pretty much no one reads appendices, so maybe I should label them as something else? Not sure what I should call it.

I've tried mentioning that I'm doing a simplified analysis in other posts. It's possible that this forestalls some nitpicking, but people often will attack the exact thing I mentioned. I get so much static on https://danluu.com/new-cpu-features/ … from people who haven't read my 2nd sentence

I really don't like putting disclaimers up front since I don't think of those as "content" and it pushes content further down, and it also doesn't seem to work? The most frequent comment on that CPU post is "this guy doesn't know anything about CPUs, X was around before the 80s"

You can call them out where relevant in the main text! (eg "Perceptive/nitpicky readers might note some deficiencies in this model; see Appendix 1 for discussion")

This type of explicit signposting is super underrated in general IMO + most essays with complicated structure could be improved by more of it
